Design Minds Lumifold Workshops

Learn new techniques to integrate the arts in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEAM).

Presented by State Library of Queensland’s Asia Pacific Design Library (APDL) in partnership with International Grammar School and QMI Solutions, educators, students (aged 10+) and enthusiasts will construct a Lumifold lamp using the origami sekkei technique – a form of mathematical and computational paper folding.

Participants can then take home their creation to light up their world!

The workshop is designed and led by Melissa Silk and Annette Mauer, STEAM educators from Sydney, using SLQ APDL’s Design Minds process (www.designminds.org.au) of inquire, ideate and implement.
